Summary: Excellent guide to Old Testament
Comment: This is an excellent interpretive commentary. It is actually one of a two-volume set. Volume 1 covers the Old Testament; volume 2 covers the New. (It is hard to tell this from the amazon.com entries for the two volumes, which have the same title, and differ only in the miniscule volume number listed with the ISBN information. However, if you click on "larger image" you can see the cover of each book identifies its topic.)
The perspective of the commentary is moderaterly conservative Christian. (The commentators exert a lot of energy at some points in trying to explain how the Bible could be historically accurate throughout.) However, even more liberal interpreters will find the scholarship impressive. Sometimes there is so much information that it is almost daunting, but you can read selectively (of course). Pictures are included where relevant (e.g., a reconstruction of what the Ark of the Covenant may have looked like).
I have enjoyed consulting volume 1, and learned a lot from it; on that basis, I am buying volume 2 now.

Summary: Supplement with The Complete Guide to the Book of Proverbs.
Comment: This book is an abridgement of the Expositor's Bible Commentary written in 1991. Of all the Old Testament commentaries I own this is the one I like the best and use the most often. There are lots of maps, pictures and charts which aid understanding and break up the text. The comments are well organized and work through each verse of the OT systematically. If you like this book you will also enjoy THE COMPLETE GUIDE TO THE BOOK OF PROVERBS by Cody Jones. This new (1999) and in-depth commentary points out numerous Biblical characters who illustrate King Solomon's witty observations on human nature. There are abundant historical drawings and photos and 6 popular translations of Proverbs in parallel. Many of the mysteries and riddles of Proverbs are explored with surprising new answers.
